NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - (PRE)ORDER DISCUSSION **NO COMPETITOR HINTING**

[Stumble Bum]

Yikes, imagine showing off your new 5090 purchase on the forums, pretending it's going in your rig, but really keeping it sealed to immediately list it on ebay for £6000. Pretty sad really.

 

[cliffy]

Grow up.

Nah mate that sucks, really not cool

 

[Hostile_18]

Scalping is one thing, but wow showing off you got a 5090 and then scalping it is a yikes that's for sure. Also on eBay when a buyer can say the package fell in the ocean leaving you without money and without the 5090

For sure, selling on there is a risk and ebay nearly always sides with the buyer.

I hope it doesn't sell really, but like wise I wouldn't turn down crazy money because I'm not stupid either.

But I definitely didn't buy to sell, I have been planning my 5090 since November when I sold my 4090 and would never use bots etc. If someone REALLY wants it I'm happy to wait though.

I might just go and offer stock price as best offer

 

[DavieJG]

This is pretty hard to stomach

Yeah but the thing is, no one with a bit of brain is gonna pay that much, and if they are they are planning to scam, or it's daddies money.

On another note, do hope Asus clicks the start button in the automated factories for the TUF pls

I stand by that. Retailers should be held to a high standard. Plus they are invested in long term growth. Totally different considerations to a single seller IMO.

 

[DavieJG]

Respect, eh?

I’m all kinds of unhappy having just caught up.

The gall to hang around forums with endless posts about how scalping is ruining our hobby only for them to not only scalp but then pretend it wasn’t them when caught.

Unbelievable.

 

[PolishNoble]

Man I was gonna drop it but this man is hilarious, double standards much

 

[Ascendancy]

I think you're all being quite harsh here. The man offered a 51p discount.

 

[Wise Old Owl]

Anyone dumb enough to pay 6k is retarded. I got my 4090FE from a scalper as I was taking a dump when the stock alert dropped. Took everything I had not to thump them one during the process. All that was going through my head was what a piece of **** they were.

Oh come on you really think my response wasn't sarcasm but a denial? lol. Why would I also have the same location as well. I've explained my reasons. I want to keep but if I get offered a lot I'll sell and wait or go for a 5080. I don't think many people would turn down 3k profit in this economy tbh, if you did you would have to have poor financial management.

What have I missed!

I actually did the 49p as a bit of a inside joke as well lol.

Maybe you should work for them, you would fit right in!

I listed my card on the high end just in case it sells.

Most want to crucify me lol.
